Sylvester Stallone said it was hard to see daughter Sophia begin a life of her own after her engagement, but praised fiancé Michael Sheehan as a “stand-up guy.” He told Jimmy Fallon he once dressed as Rambo to scare another man’s daughter’s boyfriend at the father’s request.
Sophia, 30, announced the engagement on Instagram on Aug. 28, shortly after her birthday, sharing photos of the proposal. Stallone celebrated online, writing, “We are so ecstatic.”
Stallone said an unnamed father had asked him to intervene. He wore his Rambo outfit with a headband and fake blood, plus a knife and ammunition belt, then warned the boyfriend, “If you touch her, it’s like touching me.” Stallone indicated the encounter sent the visitor away; the boyfriend had not been told it was a prank.
